[SEL] Penetrating oil

[Kangas, James G.]

CRC 3-36 predated WD-40 but was a similar product.Liquid wrench is the only other product from that time that I recall being available,but the CRC seemed to work better.We got the CRC in 5 gal. buckets

Jim - Thanks for the heads up hint about using transmission fluid to
un-seize engines.   I'm new and learning.  But what is CRC?
